Summary

"Purpose in Prayer" by Edward M. (Edward McKendree) Bounds is a spiritual guide exploring the critical role of prayer in fostering spiritual development and change within individuals. Serving as a follow-up to "Power through Prayer," the writing highlights how essential heartfelt dialogue with God is for anyone who believes. The book starts by arguing that increased prayer leads to a better world, functioning as both a defense against wrongdoing and a way to get help from God. Drawing from stories in the Bible and history, Bounds demonstrates how sincere prayer has led to major events and outcomes, establishing prayer as the key activity that keeps one spiritually alive and connected to God, encouraging readers to grasp the vital part prayer plays in their faith.
